Rafting on the Salmon River, Idaho 2021

I'm grateful to have been many places and on many adventures in my 40 something years but this one? This one knocked it out of the park. Zooey (8) and I went on a 4 night, 5 day whitewater rafting Mommy/Daughter adventure with Western River Expeditions ( Action Whitewater Adventures led the whitewater rafting trip). This trip represented a ton of firsts for us : our first post COVID flights, our first long trip away from Oliver (3), our first multi-day wilderness expedition, our first whitewater rafting. And I'll admit for a few minutes during the foggy morning ride on the small plane that brought us from Boise to the tiny town of Salmon, Idaho there was a second where I wondered "did I make a mistake?". But I did not. In fact, I made an excellent excellent choice:) Z was SO excited to be on a plane again! There were many things that made this trip wonderful - the rafting, the time with Z, the amazing beauty surrounding us, the being 100% outside for 5 days straight
